Carnation Farmers Market supports the Snoqualmie Tribe Ancestral Lands Movement: We acknowledge that our market operates on the Indigenous Land of Coast Salish peoples who have sovereign, inherent Tribal rights to this land, specifically the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe (sdukʷalbixʷ).  We thank these caretakers of this land who have lived and continue to live here since time immemorial.
What we can do to honor the land and those who live here
  • Be mindful: Respect the land by picking up after yourself and your pets, and stick to designated trails.
  • Adopt an attitude of reverence: Engage with the land mindfully, appreciating its natural balance, rather than seeking to conquer it.
  • Educate yourself: Learn more about the Snoqualmie Tribe, their history, and present-day practices.
  • Acknowledge the land: Recognize that you are enjoying time on Snoqualmie ancestral lands, in both word and action.
  • Spread the word: Encourage others to learn more about the land and acknowledge its sacred significance to the tribe(s).
